Horticulturists are great travelers. It may interest them to know that an American put up at the Adelphi Hotel at Liverpool, leaving $2500 in a valise in his room. It seems strange that an American would leave money lying around loose like that, but he said he did. He said he locked the door, and gave the key to the hotel clerk. He said some one opened his valise, stole the money and locked it again. Though there was no evidence but his unsupported word that all these strange events occurred the court decided that the money was stolen from the room, and the hotel company had to point to a printed notice in the room that they would only be liable for $150. The jury granted the American $150. It is a striking evidence of how well the word of an American will stand in an English court of justice.
